Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is the unexplained death of a baby. The baby is often under a year old and seems to be healthy. The cause of SIDS is unknown. Here are some ways you can help your baby sleep more safely:
๐ Put your baby on their back to sleep
๐ Use a firm, flat sleep surface
๐ Instead of bed sharing, room share
๐ Avoid overheating
๐ Remove soft objects and loose bedding

A mammogram is an x-ray picture of the breast. Doctors use a mammogram to look for early signs of breast cancer.
Here are some tips you can use when getting a mammogram:
๐ Try not to have your mammogram the week before your period or during your period. Your breasts may be tender or swollen then.
๐ Donโt wear deodorant, perfume or powder. These products could show up as white spots on the x-ray.
๐ You may want to wear a top with a skirt or pants instead of a dress. You will need to undress from the waist up for the mammogram.

Not all mental health challenges are easy to spot.
Knowing what signs to look for can help.
